MEMOIR FOUND IN THE CINEMA

Filmed across two continents, this short documentary takes the audience on a cinematic journey through the history of the Polish Film Festival in America. In the span of three decades, the most prominent and celebrated Polish film professionals, Oscar winners among them, were the guests of the festival. Now, in relaxed conversations with Kuba Łuczkiewicz (who enjoys a long-time friendship with many of them) they share personal, nostalgic and sometimes funny memories of their participation in the PFFA. While Filip Bajon, Jan Nowicki, Krzysztof Zanussi, Agnieszka Holland, Boguslaw Linda, Robert Więckiewicz, Janusz Majewski, and many others talk about their PFFA experiences, we see scenes from their movies screened at the PFFA, posters, newspaper clips, and photographs from the festival archives.
